Save money on your heating bills with Minibems

A holistic control and monitoring platform, Minibems can deliver significant energy and carbon reductions in a complex heat network environment. Minibems is a building energy management system that monitors and controls your heat network to reduce cost, improve efficiency and increase ease of management – perfect for those responsible for managing buildings and networks with high heat loads.

How do we achieve a 25%* energy saving

Minibems has been shown to achieve a 25%* built in energy-saving across the entire heat network.

Efficiency is achieved through weather compensated variable temperature control of the entire heat network. Minibems dynamically reduces the heat network’s operating flow and return temperatures, working to meet actual demand rather than operating the whole system at constant temperatures all year round.

Minibems sequences heat generating according to the overall requirements of the heat network, as well as each appliance’s ideal operating environment.

Minibems user interface

Minibems uses state-of-the-art controls which can be managed remotely anywhere there is an internet connection. This enables residents to monitor their own energy usage; helps service engineers to diagnose faults without the need to visit site; monitor heating and hot water usage remotely; and gives portfolio managers a single point of data access for all sites under their supervision.

Hardware controllers

Hardware controllers are easy-to-configure apps that plug in to key points on the heat network, providing remote access to diagnostics and real-world performance data.
